In this mailing list, there has been a lot of discussion on instance startup times, request queues, etc on the Java runtime (to note a few: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/google-appengine/sA3o-PTAckc/T2eA64xZ1m0J https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/google-appengine/Y6i9BYQG0Ws ).
A YCombinator News discussion popped up yesterday discussing many of the same topics on Heroku, and it's very interesting reading for those performance tuners out there: *Heroku's Ugly Secret: The story of how the cloud-king turned its back on Rails http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5215884 * * * The TLDR of the discussion is basically: long request times aren't a GAE/J only problem, Heroku on Rails is having some of the same difficulties. -hyperflame -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
